Abstract
Author concludes that public cultural policy aims for a good mix of art forms, the plurality of the arts. Private financing does not have such concept of totality and the various companies act individually with little or no coordination. Therefore, by leaving support for the arts entirely up to private forces, plurality of the arts cannot be ensured and society risks losing certain art forms or institutions.
